Flannel Gatherings Basics by Primitive Gatherings

Some fabrics are the star of a quilt.

Others are the fabrics you reach for again and again because they make everything else work.

Flannel Gatherings Basics by Primitive Gatherings for Moda Fabrics does both.

This versatile collection brings together soft quilting flannel in timeless checks, subtle textures, mottled and tonal designs and an earthy Primitive Gatherings color palette.

Use it on its own for a beautifully coordinated flannel quilt, mix it with other Primitive Gatherings collections, or keep favorite colors on hand as useful flannel basics.

What Is Flannel Gatherings Basics?

Flannel Gatherings Basics is a collection of coordinating flannel basics designed by Primitive Gatherings for Moda Fabrics.

Rather than being built around one large novelty motif or seasonal theme, these fabrics are designed to coordinate.

That makes them especially useful for:

  • quilt backgrounds

  • patchwork

  • borders

  • sashing

  • bindings

  • traditional quilts

  • primitive-style quilts

  • rustic quilts

  • flannel rag quilts

  • cozy throws

  • quilt backings

The understated designs allow you to add texture and pattern without overwhelming the rest of your quilt.

A Primitive Gatherings Color Palette

Primitive Gatherings is known for rich, grounded color, and Flannel Gatherings Basics carries that sensibility beautifully into flannel.

Look for colors such as Cloud, Cream, Evergreen, Forest, Lake, Navy, Titanium, Graphite, Blackbird, Taupe, Cocoa, Mustard, Pumpkin, Brick and Burgundy.

These aren't one-project colors.

They're stash-building colors.

Deep reds, aged-looking golds, earthy browns, weathered neutrals, greens and blues make these flannels particularly useful for traditional, rustic and primitive quilts.

Explore more Primitive Gatherings Fabrics to coordinate Flannel Gatherings Basics with other collections by the designer.

Checks, Texture & Tonal Flannel

A basic doesn't have to be boring.

Flannel Gatherings Basics uses understated pattern to create visual interest while remaining easy to coordinate.

Throughout the collection you'll find designs with the character of:

  • checks

  • plaids

  • houndstooth

  • tonal texture

  • mottled texture

  • subtle geometric pattern

These small-scale designs can function almost like solids while giving your quilt more depth.

That's particularly helpful in patchwork, where a completely solid fabric and a strongly printed fabric may create more contrast than you want.

Why Quilt with Flannel?

Flannel brings something to a quilt that ordinary quilting cotton doesn't: softness and warmth.

Its softly brushed surface gives quilts a cozy hand that makes flannel especially appealing for:

  • bed quilts

  • lap quilts

  • throws

  • children's quilts

  • cabin quilts

  • cold-weather quilts

  • rag quilts

Flannel Gatherings Basics lets you get that softness without sacrificing the sophisticated color and traditional style associated with Primitive Gatherings.

Browse more Flannel Fabric when you'd like additional flannel collections and coordinating options.

Flannel Basics for Mixing & Matching

One of the biggest advantages of Flannel Gatherings Basics is versatility.

You don't have to make a quilt exclusively from this collection.

Use a subtle Flannel Gatherings Basic beside a more prominent print from another Primitive Gatherings collection.

A check can become a binding.

A tonal can become a background.

A dark flannel can add contrast.

A lighter neutral can give busy prints room to breathe.

This makes Flannel Gatherings Basics useful both as a complete collection and as a supporting flannel palette for future projects.

Flannel Gatherings Basics Precuts

Prefer to start with coordinated precut fabric?

Flannel Gatherings Basics is available in several popular precut formats, including:

  • 5" Charm Packs

  • 10" Layer Cakes

  • Fat Eighth Bundles

  • Fat Quarter Bundles

Precuts let you bring a range of coordinating Flannel Gatherings Basics colors and designs into your quilt without purchasing yardage of every print.

They're also a convenient way to begin a patchwork or rag-quilt project.

Browse all Precut Fabrics for more precut options.

Flannel Gatherings Basics 5" Charm Packs

A 5" Charm Pack gives you precut squares ready for patchwork.

Use 5" flannel squares for:

Flannel Gatherings Basics 10" Layer Cakes

A 10" Layer Cake gives you more fabric to work with while still providing the convenience of precut squares.

Use the squares whole or cut them into smaller units for half-square triangles, four-patches and other traditional blocks.

Find more project ideas in our Layer Cake Quilt Patterns.

And if a cozy rag quilt is calling your name, keep reading—we'll show you exactly how to make one.

Fat Eighth & Fat Quarter Bundles

For more cutting flexibility, choose a Fat Eighth Bundle or Fat Quarter Bundle.

These larger pieces allow you to cut multiple shapes and sizes from each fabric, making them useful for sampler quilts, traditional blocks, appliqué and patchwork.

You can also browse all Precut-Friendly Patterns for even more possibilities.

Something Special: 108" Wide Flannel Quilt Backing

Here's where Flannel Gatherings Basics becomes particularly interesting.

The collection includes 108" wide flannel.

Wide quilt backing is wonderfully convenient.

Wide flannel quilt backing is even more unusual.

Standard-width fabric often requires multiple lengths to be sewn together before it can cover the back of a larger quilt. A 108" wide backing gives you dramatically more width to work with and may allow many quilts to be backed without piecing multiple standard-width lengths together.

And because these are flannel, you can create an especially cozy quilt with softness on the back as well as the front.

Why Use 108" Wide Flannel for Quilt Backing?

A wide flannel backing can simplify one of the final stages of making a quilt.

Depending on the dimensions of your quilt, 108" wide fabric may eliminate or reduce backing seams.

That can mean:

  • less piecing

  • fewer seams across the quilt back

  • less time preparing backing

  • a cleaner uninterrupted design

  • a wonderfully soft finished quilt

Always calculate the backing required for your particular quilt and allow the additional fabric your longarm quilter or quilting method requires.

Explore our complete 108" Wide Quilt Backing Fabric selection for more wide-back options.

108" Wide Box Check Flannel

The Box Check 108" wide flannel coordinates beautifully with the regular-width Flannel Gatherings Basics collection.

The subtle check gives the back of your quilt visual interest without competing with the quilt top.

Colors such as Cream, Evergreen, Lake, Titanium and Brick make it possible to coordinate the backing with many different quilt palettes.

For product naming, we recommend leading with the fabric type:

108" Wide Box Check 108018-11F Cream by Primitive Gatherings for Moda Fabrics

That immediately tells the shopper she's looking at a 108" wide fabric before identifying the specific design and color.

Primitive Muslin 108" Wide Flannel

The collection also brings the Primitive Gatherings aesthetic to Primitive Muslin 108" wide flannel, providing another versatile wide-back option.

This is particularly useful when you want the warmth and softness of flannel backing but prefer a quieter, more understated appearance on the back of the quilt.

Make a Cozy Flannel Rag Quilt

Flannel Gatherings Basics is also a natural choice for one of our favorite cozy projects: a flannel rag quilt.

Rag quilts are constructed so selected seam allowances remain exposed. After the seams are clipped and the quilt is washed, those edges soften and fray to create the characteristic fluffy texture that makes rag quilts so much fun.

Flannel is particularly well suited to this technique.

And if you've never made one, we'll show you how.

Learn How to Make a Rag Quilt

Start with our free How to Make a Rag Quilt video tutorial.

Jen walks you through the process so you can see how the layers, seams and clipped edges come together.

It's a wonderful introduction if you're new to rag quilting.

Make It Easier with the Batting Buddy

The Creative Grids Batting Buddy Template Set helps you prepare consistent quilt sandwiches for rag-quilt construction.

Follow along with our free How to Make a Rag Quilt with the Batting Buddy video tutorial to see the tool in action.

A Flannel Gatherings Basics Layer Cake is a convenient way to begin when you're working with a project based on 10" squares.

Make a Four-Patch Flannel Rag Quilt

Want more patchwork?

Watch How to Make a Four-Patch Flannel Rag Quilt with the Batting Buddy.

The four-patch design gives you an opportunity to combine the rich colors of Flannel Gatherings Basics in smaller units while keeping the soft, casual personality of a rag quilt.

The collection's 5" Charm Pack makes those precut squares particularly interesting for this style of project.

Try a Half-Square Triangle Flannel Rag Quilt

Half-square triangles introduce even more movement.

Start with our Half-Square Triangle Flannel Rag Quilt Pattern, then sew along with Jen in How to Make a Half-Square Triangle Flannel Rag Quilt with the Batting Buddy.

The combination of checks, subtle textures and earthy colors in Flannel Gatherings Basics gives you plenty of opportunities to create contrast between the triangles.

The Right Snips Make a Difference

Clipping all those exposed seam allowances is what creates a rag quilt's signature fringe.

It's also a lot of repetitive cutting.

Fiskars Easy Action Rag Quilt Snips are designed for this kind of repetitive clipping and can make the process much easier on your hand.

If you're planning to make more than one rag quilt, they're a tool worth having in your sewing room.

Another Easy Rag Quilt Project

For another approachable project, explore the Easy as ABC and 123 Rag Quilt Pattern.

Rag quilts are a wonderful way to combine simple construction, soft flannel and plenty of color—and they're especially satisfying when you want to make something cozy and useful.

Build a Flannel Stash That Works Together

Flannel Gatherings Basics isn't limited to one quilt.

That's what makes a good basic valuable.

Choose favorite colors as yardage, pick up a bundle when you want coordinated variety, or add a 108" wide flannel for a soft quilt back.

Then mix those fabrics with future Primitive Gatherings collections as your flannel stash grows.
